Remediation Deep Dive - PFAS Environmental Science in 7 Minutes or Less
Welcome to Remediation Deep Dive — where key peer-reviewed publications on complex soil and groundwater challenges are discussed in 7 minutes or less. AI Technical Correspondents Max Phlux and Sandi Lohm break down the latest innovations in PFAS remediation offering listeners actionable insight to treat PFAS. Max and Sandi dive deep into the science and strategy behind managing forever chemicals using cutting edge approaches like in situ remediation with colloidal activated carbon to cost-effectively treat PFAS in soil and groundwater. Max and Sandi deliver practical knowledge to keep consultants, regulators, and decision-makers informed on best practices for tackling PFAS and other contaminants.
Episodes
Max and Sandi dive into the peer-reviewed article, “Longevity of Colloidal Activated Carbon for In Situ PFAS Remediation at AFFF-Contaminated Airport Sites” by Carey et al. (2022), highlighting >90–99% PFAS reduction across 17 sites and the key factors driving CAC’s long-term performance.
Max and Sandi dive into the peer-reviewed article, “Tool and Database for Estimating Potential Longevity of Colloidal Activated Carbon Barriers for PFAS in Groundwater” by Newell et al. (2025), highlighting a new planning tool that simplifies estimating CAC barrier lifespan to guide design, planning, and PFAS plume management.
Max and Sandi dive into the peer-reviewed article, “PFAS Monitored Retention: A Framework for Managing PFAS-Contaminated Groundwater Sites” by Adamson et al. (2025), exploring how PFAS Monitored Retention (PMR) and PFAS Enhanced Retention (PER) use physical and chemical processes to slow plume migration and reduce risk—offering a cost-effective option where immediate threats are absent.
Max and Sandi dive into the peer-reviewed article, “A Cost Comparison of Pump-and-Treat and In Situ Colloidal Activated Carbon for PFAS Plume Management” by Birnstingl and Wilson (2024), highlighting how CAC delivers decades-long PFAS containment at one-third the cost of pump-and-treat—without the waste, energy use, or long-term liabilities.
In this opening episode, AI Technical Correspondents Max Phlux and Sandi Lohm introduce the Remediation Deep Dive podcast—a 5-part series dedicated to summarizing and discussing key technical papers in PFAS environmental remediation. They preview the topics ahead, offering listeners a clear roadmap of the science, strategies, and innovations that will be explored in each episode.
In our first episode, AI Technical Correspondents Max Phlux and Sandi Lohm dive into the Wiley Remediation Journal article entitled Pandora’s PFAS Box: Life Cycle Exposure Considerations of Treatment Options for PFAS in Groundwater. Max and Sandi discuss the futility of trying to flush PFAS from an aquifer and the increased risk associated with generating and handling the PFAS waste. You’ll leave with clear, actionable insights to ...

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
